It didn’t take long for the comparisons between Pittsburgh Steelers 2022 seventh-round pick Mark Robinson and former linebacker Vince Williams to emerge. Though they have differing backgrounds, they were both late-round thumpers. But even though Robinson is more athletically gifted, there’s no telling if he will have a similarly successful career.

Williams has taken note of Robinson from the beginning, saying even back in August that the rookie “is better than I was as a rookie”. But Williams came a long way from his beginnings. And he cautions that Robinson will have to take similar steps to have a long career.
